“Shelley is awesome! She is very attentive for our fur babies and they loved her too!! She took great care of our house and went the extra mile (or 5) to assure we and the babies were happy. Will definitely ask her to watch the girls again!!”

“I quite literally could not say enough wonderful things about my experience using Kristen to housesit for me and my fur babies while I was out of town. I am so particular about who I let watch them when I am gone and she exceeded ALL expectations.”

“Cassie was great! I was afraid my dogs might be a little standoffish because two of them take a while to warm up to people, but by the end of her night here, they all seem to be best buddies! She took great care of them and sent me many great pictures, which I really appreciate. She also sent me updates on how they were doing. She even took them outside and had play time with them. I will definitely recommend her to anyone and will book her again in a heartbeat.”

“Cara was AMAZING!!!! She was wonderful with communication and was so great with everything all weekend! From helping dog sit last minute and through TERRIBLE weather - Cara was great through it all and I will definitely request to have her watch my pup again!!”

“My rescue dog Jack loves Marcy. Everything was taken care of while I was gone. She kept in touch with me and gave me a video od Jack that made me smile. I will definitely call on her again.”

“Darien was awesome! Responded quickly when I would message her. She was great with our pups while we were gone for a long weekend. Sent us pics and communicated often. Definitely will use her again!”

“Lori was fantastic! We felt good leaving our 3 large dogs with her for a weekend in our home. She kept us updated and informed on their eating, potty, and medication schedule. We also came home to a clean house and the sheets where she slept were already washed. We absolutely recommend Lori!!”

“Randy was phenomenal!! He is so easy to work with; shows some never love to both my female dogs. Randy sent me pics from his rides in the car with them as well as walks in the park. He even walked them twice a day! From the moment my girls met him there was an instant connection. I ev n came home to a spotless home; I kno he vacuumed and suffered the kitchen floors because he asked me where the cleaning supplies were! I cannot say enough about the trustworthiness of Randy living in my home while I was traveling out of the country for a full 8 days. Excellent communication, respect of my home, and tremendous love shown towards my dogs! I’ve already booked Randy for my next vacation in April!!👍🐶”

“5 STAR ⭐️ Jasmin and her pup Thor took the best care of my deaf bulldog, Mouse while I was out of town for 3 nights. I was so worried when I saw that there would be extreme heat during my time away but when I reached out to Jasmin she asked great questions and listened carefully to how I usually handle hot weather to keep Mouse safe and comfortable. Jasmin provided great updates and pictures/video that made me feel able to relax and enjoy my vacation. Jasmin carefully followed Mouse’s complicated feeding and medication needs. I feel Lucky to have met Jasmin, she even provided some training for Mouse and I on a behavioral issue he was having.”

“Kyle took outstanding care of Archie and Rhea (and kept a watchful eye on our home) while we were on vacation. He asked thoughtful questions and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, both pets were happy, healthy, and clearly well-adjusted. Archie and Rhea absolutely adore Kyle—I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again for future trips.”

About: Hello! I focus on supporting dogs with separation anxiety over two years old. My dog comes with me to house-sit and walk. "Meet and Greets" are in a neutral area near your house, and then we go to your house! I have been pet-sitting most of my life and have had several of my own dogs. I am happy to keep your pets' schedules/routine familiar and care for them the way you do. Meals, basic care and training, playing with favorite toys, and enrichment. I am constantly making sure the dogs in my care feel safe, have fun, and relax. I will read out loud with them and play classical music. Lots of snuggles, if they enjoy them, and cozy energy. Consistent time out to go potty every 2-4 hours or as needed. Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I have weekends and evenings available. Some daytime hours as well. My dog is always with me, and we are happy to come take care of your fur babies! Safety is my top priority. That includes not just making sure walks are in safe locations and keeping an eye on any other dogs out, but making sure their routine stays consistent. I watch the dogs I am with consistently while they eat. play, and sleep. When I get where I am watching the dog(s), I check the area we will be in to make sure floors are clear and safe, and I make sure I know where anything is that I might need for safety or cleanups. I sit down and say hi to the dogs and play gently. Talking and singing to them or putting on some classical music and petting them. I make sure they are the center of my time.
“This is the 2nd time I’ve used Cassie in the past couple of months - this was for an engagement of just over 2 weeks. Cassie stayed at my house with Brutus. Cassie was very communicative and sent pictures of Brutus daily. She was also very responsive to texts I sent. For the record, Brutus can be a ‘grumpy old man’ (he’s 16+ years old) and doesn't always warm up to people quickly but ABSOLUTELY loves Cassie. In addition, Cassie was very respectful of the house - when I arrived back home, it was as if nobody had even been there. Thank you Cassie for taking such great care of Brutus!”

About: I’ve had pets most of my life & am a very caring person. My work schedule is very flexible and I love meeting new pets! I have a very flexible schedule at work with most weekends and evenings off! I can be available during the mornings and afternoons as well! I can adapt to your needs! I live in a multi pet household and know that not all dogs (even the same breed) are the same! I will love your pets as if they were my own!
About: I have a lot of experience with animals and I love them all they get a lot of attention at my home I think they are very affectionate animals and they understand people I am retired now so I am home I give the animals complete attention and adore their personalities I take dogs for walks and I throw balls or frisbees to make them feel comfortable and more of a schedule is best for them I feel animals need a lot of attention so if you show them attention They will make you proud of them Also if you know a dogs routine they’re more safe around you

About: I’m not sure that there’s one specific thing that would set me apart from other caregivers however, my best buddy Trouble crossed the rainbow bridge in February. Trouble was a 13 year old Weimaraner that my daughters & I rescued during Covid. Currently, Im not ready to be a dog mom just yet but I am ready to fill the empty space in my heart! I miss having a fur baby to walk with & playing in the yard. I have experience with large breeds , rescues, and seniors. I do work a full-time job Monday through Friday but I work a hybrid schedule & on the weekends I am an early riser so I could start as early as 5 AM. I am soon to be an empty nester and recently lost my fur baby. I am looking to keep busy with some new free time! In my clients home, I will care for their animals just as they do & keeping with their routine. If their dog needs belly rubs , quiet time, snuggling time & playing with & walking, I will do it all!
About: I have over 25 years of experience caring for and loving dogs. I have provided basic training techniques, agility training, walking, boarding, drop in visits and overall companionship. I make sure that I feed the dog according to their schedule, and ensuring its safety and well-being including administering medications. I am able to accommodate dogs of all types and sizes and I communicate with owners by providing updates on the dog's progress. Depending on the arrangement, this can involve overnight stays and house-sitting. I have also cared for senior dogs and dogs with special needs! I am currently working from home and my availability is very flexible. I can assure that your furbaby (s) is in the best hands and I prioritize their needs above my own I have a fenced in yard with shelter and water. I live on a dead end road so very quiet and safe. Your furbabies will have fun running and playing outdoors and indoors! If you would rather me come to your home, I’m familiar with taking care of other dogs in the safety of their current environment including over night stays!
